Yummy Yum Asian Cuisine — Restaurant in Murfreesboro

I did a phone order for pick-up. I ordered fried tofu, summer rolls with chicken, and chicken pad thai with a 4 out of 5 heat level. I tried to order crab rangoon but they were out.

I walked in - no one was in the restaurant. After a few seconds, a younger gentleman walks out from the back with his mouth stuffed. I greet him. I advised I understood my food probably wasn't ready yet. (I was told 20 min for my food and I showed up right around the 18 min mark.) He continued chewing his food.

He prints an initial receipt to show me what's owed. Points to the receipt. I acknowledge it. He continues looking past me at the TV on in the corner. His first words from his mouth were "NYC" (something on the TV). I sign the copy. He asked if I needed a copy, I said I didn't.

He disappears to the back. I stand in the restaurant for about 5-10 more minutes waiting on my food. A little girl wonders down the hallway, then sits behind the register and just stares at me. The younger gentleman continued to come and go a few times, each time with a large amount of food in his mouth. Finally - I get my food. I say "thank you" and head out.

Fried tofu - decent taste. Looked like they just took a block and hacked at it and tossed it in the fryer. No rhyme or reason.

Summer rolls with chicken - chicken wasn't seasoned. Summer rolls were okay. Carrots, cucumber, noodles, lettuce and chicken wrapped in rice paper. They were pretty large.

Chicken pad thai - wasn't spicy at all. I love spice, which is why I requested a 4 on their scale that goes up to 5. Taste was okay.

Peanut sauce - tasted like they dumped a spoonful of peanut butter in a condiment container.

Sweet and sour sauce - pretty subpar. Tasted like it came from a bottle maybe. Nothing special about it.

Ultimately, I was pretty disappointed. I will not be back. I hope they continue to do business to please others in the community (if anyone likes it). But in the meantime, I'm looking for a good Thai...

I'm here to say I think I found my favorite Thai restaurant in Murfreesboro!

Yummy Yum gets 5 stars - truly because they exceeded all expectations.

I have been on my quest this past year to find the best Thai spot in the area. With merely 1 restaurant left on my list, Yummy Yum holds the #1 award! Hopefully, they shall remain - the last handful left have put up major feats with only a couple disappointments...

Yummy Yum is located on Memorial Blvd in a shopping center next to the Publix. I do believe they chose a great location since the area over there is significantly developing with more businesses.

The outside of the restaurant is very clean and I LOVE they have handicap access right at the door. The inside draws you to a sense of being inside a Thai restaurant center New York, NY. The food resembles such as well. Classic oriental food, that brings you into the culture.

I placed my order to go, a preferred method by most. The communication on the phone was a little bit difficult (hard to understand). Me personally I don't find a fault in that, however, many others may... I will say the only negative commentary I could make about Yummy Yum is the limited menu and language barrier.

I ordered: The Chicken Pad Thai spice of 4, and a single order of spring rolls.

The pad thai had the best flavor and perfect amount of spice I have ever tasted.

Also, at Yummy Yum I received the (by a long shot) most bang for my buck. The entree could literally last someone 3 meals and I received 5 spring rolls. I paid a little over $10. Wow. Great compared to others in the area.

Man. Yummy Yum made my day and my belly very happy! Thank you Yummy Yumm!

I will definitely be back very...

I rarely leave reviews, and have actually never posted a negative one. But after being confused by the mixed reviews on this place, I wanted to share my experience. The positive I can share is that they were indeed very fast. I ordered red curry and my mom ordered pad Thai. As another review stated, the curry was incredibly thin and low on taste, and the chicken in it did not taste good to me. The pad Thai was less disappointing than the curry, but still not very flavorful at all.

Another issue is that there were several very persistent flies in the room and I felt like I spent the majority of the time there batting them away from the food and off of myself. The server also never refilled our drinks despite us being the only customers in...
